Going back to being twenty, taking her heartbroken son to a massage parlor.

This statement is more effective than any magic pill.

Su Shixing suddenly raised her head.

She clung tightly to Su Mu's legs with both hands, gazing at him expectantly.

"dad!"

"My dear father!"

"Tell me quickly, what's the solution?"

"Jianxi has blocked me on WeChat, and I can't get through to her on the phone. I didn't even have a chance to explain!"

"Her auntie was like a guardian deity, spraying me with pepper spray whenever I got within five meters!"

Su Mu pulled his legs out and sat down in the empty seat next to him.

"Use your rusty brain to think."

"You need to think this through carefully. If she really disliked you, she would have thrown all the things you gave her back long ago."

"But didn't her roommate return the snacks you bought?"

"Do you know why Xiao Jianxi always has her aunt protecting her?"

"Even going to the restroom requires them to hold hands?"

Su Shixing scratched the back of his head, looking dejected.

"What else could it be?"

"She hates me."

"You don't want to see me."

"I'm afraid that if I pester her relentlessly, it will affect her mood."

"wrong."

Su Mu held up a finger and waved it in front of Su Shixing's eyes.

"Completely wrong."

"This means she has feelings for you."

"She's afraid that if she sees you alone, you might sweet-talk her and affect her mood."

"I'm even more afraid that I might accidentally soften my heart and forgive you."

"She held onto Xia Lanlan because she was afraid she wouldn't have enough self-control."

"She'll surrender completely if you try to coax her."

"That's why I used Xia Lanlan as a shield to bolster my courage."

"Women are all two-faced creatures."

She might say she'll never talk to you again, but secretly she's probably hoping you'll go and coax her.

Su Shixing was happy this time.

He slapped his thigh and jumped up from the ground.

The gloom on his face vanished.

"dad!"

"You mean she still has feelings for me?"

"She's been waiting for me?"

"But you just threatened me, saying you'd never forgive me in this lifetime!"

He rubbed his hands together, eager to try, wishing he could rush down from the stands right now to confess his feelings.

Su Mu rolled his eyes at him, annoyed.

"Wasn't I teaching you to keep a safe distance from other women?"

"You think this is a joke?"

"Many misunderstandings arise from this."

"Sometimes, there's just one misunderstanding. She doesn't say anything, and you don't ask, and the two of you just go your separate ways."

"The relationship of first love is very fragile."

"Especially during university."

"They might have a fight today, and then break up tomorrow."

"If you don't learn your lesson, you'll regret it later."

Su Shixing nodded repeatedly, nodding like he was pounding garlic.

"I understand!"

"From now on, I will resolutely keep a distance of at least three meters from other women!"

"I don't even let female mosquitoes get close!"

"So what do we do now?"

"Xia Lanlan keeps a close eye on her; I can't get close at all."

Su Mu put his hands in his pockets and looked at the two figures on the track who were still sweating profusely.

"Actually, she understands that you didn't do anything wrong."

"You've explained the whole story about Wenwen's mother; the fault doesn't lie with you."

"She's just jealous, jealous that you're so close to other women."

"I'm ignoring you now because I'm manipulating you and teaching you a lesson."

"This will teach you a lesson so you won't do it again."

"But this matter cannot be delayed."

"If it's any later, once she's processed her emotions on her own, then it's really hard to say what will happen."

"Fine, I'll help you one more time."

"I'll lure Xia Lanlan away and create an opportunity for you two to be alone together."

"Remember this: women are not rational beings."

"Don't argue with her about right and wrong at this time, and don't try to use logic."

"You need to coax them."

"Do you understand?"

After Su Mu finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave the stands.

Lin Zhiting, who was standing next to him, came over and took Su Mu's arm.

The little girl blinked her big eyes and gestured with her chin towards Su Shixing.

"Your stepmother will help you too."

"I'll cooperate with Brother Su Mu, and I guarantee we'll lure that fierce woman far away."

"I'm giving you plenty of room to maneuver."

Su Shixing was deeply moved.

"dad!"

"Stepmother!"

"You are my own mother!!"

"I knew you guys were the best to me!!!"

.........

sunset.

The crimson sunset painted half the sky.

The plastic running track at Jiangcheng Women's University was dyed a golden yellow.

Xia Lanlan was jogging slowly with Xiao Jianxi on the track.

Both of them were sweating a lot.

Xia Lanlan's tight black yoga outfit was soaked with sweat.

It clung to the body, creating a breathtaking curve.

The movements fluctuated with the running motion.

This attracted frequent sidelong glances from male students passing by, but they dared not look openly.

Xiao Jianxi was panting heavily from running, her fair cheeks flushed.

Her ponytail swayed back and forth behind her head.

She wasn't really interested in running; her mind was filled with that idiot Su Shixing.

"Auntie, let's take a break."

"I can't run anymore."

Xiao Jianxi braced himself on his knees, panting heavily.

His chest heaved violently.

Xia Lanlan stopped and handed her a bottle of mineral water.

"You can't run anymore?"

"Jianxi, you still need to work on your physical fitness."

Don't waste your energy on that jerk.

"Men are all the same, listen to your aunt, forget about him."

"Tomorrow, your aunt will introduce you to someone even better—handsome, rich, and loyal."

Xiao Jianxi took the water bottle, unscrewed the cap, and took a small sip.

There was no follow-up.

Just then.

A tall and imposing figure flashed past not far ahead.

Beside her was a petite figure wearing a navy blue JK uniform.

The two held hands intimately.

Su Mu deliberately slowed his pace and looked around.

He portrayed the guilty conscience of a thief with remarkable skill.

Lin Zhiting cooperated even more, pressing herself against Su Mu and snuggling into his arms in a coquettish manner.

The two ran straight toward the abandoned equipment room behind the playground.

That place is usually deserted, overgrown with weeds.

Xia Lanlan's Bagua Radar was immediately activated.

My curiosity was immediately piqued.

She squinted and carefully examined the two figures from behind.

"Hey hey hey!"

"Look at the stream!"

"Isn't that Su Mu and that little girl named Lin Zhiting?"

Why would they go to such a remote place?

"A lone man and woman, wandering into the woods?"

Xia Lanlan grabbed Xiao Jianxi's arm, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Let's go, let's follow them and see!"

"That Su Mu is such a scumbag!"

"He's flirting with a freshman girl again, in broad daylight!"

"That's shameless!"

"I'd like to see what shady business they're up to!"

Xiao Jianxi shook his head and tightened the cap on the mineral water bottle.

"Auntie, let's forget about it."

"This is someone else's private matter; let's not meddle."

"It would be so embarrassing if we got caught."

She was in a state of utter confusion and had no time to concern herself with other people's business.

I just want to go back to my dorm and lie down, or check my phone to see if there are any messages from that person.
